    Seasonal Recipes

    Some recipes taste better at different times of the year. For example, you wouldn't eat a gazpacho in the middle of winter😜🥶. But, I do live in Florida, where the summer is endless, and the winters disappear in the blink of an eye. Because of the fleeting winters, we cherish those good, warm-you-to-the-bone recipes when the temperature drops.
